mission

Join us on 1/31/20 @ 2pm EST to view 62 DAYS, a film that documents the case of Marlise Mu?oz, who died suddenly at age 33 when she was 14 weeks pregnant. Against her wishes stated clearly when she was alive, and over the objections of her husband and parents, a Texas hospital appropriated her lifeless body to try to keep her 14-week fetus alive. The hospital argued that the Texas advance directive law required them to use her body as an incubator. Stay after the movie for a disucssion with Filmmaker Rebecca Haimowitz, NAPW's Executive Director and Founder Lynn M. Paltrow, and BRBA President/NAPW Attorney Indra Lusero.
Please RSVP here.
